Read, reblog, and resonate!
Cause my last post did so well (thank you haters and stans 🫶) I thought, why not make a post about their delusions and bs. So let's talk Felix (this is for the stans 😘):
• "Emotion": he commited terrorism, was happily spreading fear and ceased innocent people from existance cause they were human and he doesn't like humans, a crime based on pure hatred - basically magical genocide (for a lil comparison check Magneto and his view on humans/mutants)
• "Pretension": Felix stalks and kidnaps Kagami, thinking it's just fine. Starts being interested in her romantically cause she's senti. He never cared about her before, only after finding out did he start caring - this plus fact above confirms he's racist against humans. No, Colt's abuse against him doesn't justify anything. Recreate the scenario in your head if it was with black and white people. Oh and on top of this, Felix makes Kagami feel sorry for him so she gives him a chance, which in the end works. Basically little guilttripping. But she also gets together with him cause he looks like her ex, for whom she still has unresolved feelings for so all in all Feligami is not only underdeveloped (has no build-up) but in a way also disgusting
• "Felix": His introduction and we already get to know he never cared for Adrien, in fact bullied him since they were little. The small amount of time he's there he invades Adrien's privacy on his phone, sends a hate message to his friends, hoping to break up their friendship, further pretends to be him to mess with his cousin as much as he can, SAs Ladybug so, again he can mess with Adrien and make his crush hate him, and puts camembert under Adrien's pillow just because. And ofc also steals Gabriel's ring cause his mother wanted to have it (who already never cared for them and only visited to get the rings back). Definitely respectful towards Gabriel AND Adrien and if he cares for his cousin so much, shouldn't he know Adrien has a right to those rings too? (Literally his amoks) Oh and in the end, he pretends to feel sorry - he doesn't a little bit ofc. Lovely boy 🤪
• Multiple eps in s4: Snoops around the Agreste mansion just cause he can - he literally has no motive other than snoop around and maybe find some dirt cause why not? If it wasn't obvious already gonna say it again - disrespectful af move. Imagine if one of your relatives or friends decided to basically break into private sections of your house.
• Season 4 finale: Decides to pretend to be Adrien, NOT for his benefit but his own which in the end he exploits by betraying Ladybug's trust and dealing every miraculous for the peacock with the villain. For all the heroes and whole Paris knows, Monarch won. He will defeat the heroes and make his Wish and dominate the Earth. "Lucky" for them plot armour exists and that Gabriel "only" wanted to bring Emilie back otherwise it would've meant the end of the world. And Felix helped without any bother or remorse 😃 Gonna say it - s5 would look different if Felix didn't exchange every miraculous for one. Hell, there's a chance Gabriel might've not gone mad!
• "Representation": After everything he's done he has the nerve to go to Marinette, not even directly(!), and ask her to help defeat Monarch so that HE can have a happy ending with his girlfriend. His motive wasn't "Monarch needs to be stopped cause he's the villain and people need to be safe" but "Monarch needs to be stopped cause I want ME to be safe with MY girlfriend" - can you smell the selfishness here?
• He claims to care so much for his cousin but as mentioned, he bullied him since they were kids, but he's senti so now he cares oh and now that Kagami is his girlfriend, he had every reason to try breaking Adrien and Kagami out of their lockdown in London. He literally lives there. But he didn't.
• Guess what? The writers and the fans want to make him out to be a hero but he isn't and never was. In fact he never even AT LEAST apologized to Ladybug after everything he's done, for betraying her for example 😃
So on a final note - you can't excuse him. These are things he did. It's canon. You can't twist around anything. If you want to try and excuse him, ask yourself "are you REALLY a fan of the character if you can't accept their wrongdoings? Or do you just want your fav character to be a perfect angel?"
For everything he does he has selfish reasons. And that's his character, accept it.
Colt's abuse doesn't excuse anything. Like the saying goes "it's an explanation, NOT an excuse"
In fact, by the narrative's standard it definitely doesn't give you the right to behave like a jacka**, see Chloe who never got a redemption cause "she was too far gone" and this scene:
Rose: "Don't be mad at her. She's this way because her mother left her when she was young."
Mylène: "So did mine! And you don't see me having fun bullying Marinette."
And for sure it doesn't give anyone any right to wield a miraculous, quoting Astruc: "Mean people don't and will never deserve a Miraculous"
Another interesting fact Astruc once revealed was about why Felix was later switched to Adrien as the love interest for Marinette. With his words, "he's a weak character with cliché psychology" - can't believe it but I agree with Astruc. Felix definitely works on cliché psychology. Ofc it's hilarious cause they write him this way but oh well, their mistake and the fans' blind spot.
Apparently Felix was also too dark and too mean for Marinette but guess that doesn't apply to Kagami 🙃
Anyway, enjoy the food Felix stans 😉
